今日阅读:

①Editors of newspapers and magazines often go to extremes to provide their reader with unimportant facts and statistics. Last year a journalist had been instructed by a well-known magazine to write an article on the president's palace in a new African republic. ②When the article arrived, the editor read the first sentence and then refuse to publish it. The article began: 'Hundreds of steps lead to the high wall which surrounds the president's palace'. The editor at once sent the journalist a fax instructing him find out the exact number of steps and the height of the wall.

今日文章解读:

When the article arrived, the editor read the first sentence and then refuse to publish it. The article began: 'Hundreds of steps lead to the high wall which surrounds the president's palace'. The editor at once sent the journalist a fax instructing him find out the exact number of steps and the height of the wall.

稿子寄来后,编辑看第一句话就拒绝予以发表。文章的开头是这样的:“几百级台阶通向环绕总统的高墙。”编辑立即给那位记者发去传真,要求他核实一下台阶的确切数字和围墙的高度。

(1)and连词的用法

the editor read the first sentence and then refuse to publish it.

在这个句子中可以看出有两个动词,read和refuse,一个句子里为什么会出现两个谓语,这就是and连词的作用。下面听我一一道来。

①and连接两个并列关系

It is impossible to live in society and be independent of society. 生于社会,不能脱离社会。(and连接两个不定式)

②and连接两个动词,但不是并列关系,但有所关联

Try and do it again. 再试试看。

③and可以做叠词

longer and longer 越来越长

over and over 反复

and连接的句子前后可以有逗号吗(and别总看成和)(2)

④and可以表示加法,或在口语中表达100以上的数字时使用

One and two are three. 一加二等于三。

one hundred and twelve. 112。

and的用法与or有很多相似之处,后面我们用到再讲,记得关注我哈。

(2)at once表示立即,马上

一般副词都可以放在句中或句尾,而副词短语则一般放在句尾。

I must see the doctor at once! 我现在就要见医生!

She ran briskly out of the classroom. 她轻快的跑出了教室。
